ged vacuum containers may burst (implode) when evacuated, lea-
ding to a high risk of injuries and damage according to splinters and
splashes being hurled about. Before evacuating vacuum containers,
always check the containers for any type of damage (e.g. cracks, dis-
tortions, or dents). Unsuited foils, and bags could cause overheating,
and fire, or stick down to the sealing bar or heating bar. Do not over-
fill the bags or containers to avoid damage and overheating due to
any substances, sucked in during operation. Do not place any foreign
objects into the appliance. Always handle any evacuated containers
with special care to avoid injuries and damage due to implosion,
hurling splinters and splashes about. Do not expose evacuated con-
tainers to heat or mechanical or thermal shock or direct sunlight.
•
Risk of Explosion and Fire! Do not seal or evacuate containers
or bags filled with inflammable, volatile substances (e.g. spirits,
organic solvents)!
•
Do not use violence, especially when attempting to open the lid!
There is an automatically operated lock, closing and opening the
lid during and after operation (see: ‘Properties of Your New Design
Vacuum Sealer Advanced Scale Pro’).
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning pads for cleaning the appli-
ance or any part of it. Do not clean the appliance with any corrosive
chemicals (e.g. bleach). Do not use any hard or sharp-edged objects
for operation or cleaning. Always handle the heating bar, sealing bar,
and vacuum gaskets with special care.
DO NOT place the appliance
or any part of it in an automatic dishwasher.
Never re-use bags
and containers for any foodstuffs, after storing foreign objects within
them, because harmful substances (e.g. mineral oil, lubricants. sol-
vents) could infuse plastics or build an invisible microscopic layer on
plastic surfaces, that persists even after thorough cleaning, contamina-
ting your food with foreign odours and toxic substances.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS FOR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
• Ensure that the voltage rating of your power supply corresponds to the
voltage requirements of the appliance: 220 - 240 V, 50/60 Hz, AC,
rated for at least 8 A. The installation of a residual current operated cir-
